The mono-unsaturated to saturated fat ratio is higher in Wagyu than in other beef. Wagyu is also higher in a type of fatty acid called conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). This has been shown to have potent anti-carcinogenic properties, as well as being an anti inflammatory agent. Research also suggests that feeding grass increases the CLA content of all beef. Grass fed Wagyu – Healthier for us all! As we say in Wales, Iechyd da - Good health!
